| Diagnosis | Diagnosis. Tympanocryptis einasleighensis (Species C) differs from all other species of the genus by scattered enlarged dorsal scales, weakly imbricate but strongly keeled with central keel terminating in a weak spine; posterior edge of enlarged scales very narrowly raised. Small dorsal scales weakly to strongly keeled without terminating spine, weakly imbricate. Vertebral, dorso-lateral and lateral stripes usually absent. If dorsal patterning present, consists of 5-6 dark narrow crossbands, poorly defined and much narrower than intervening pale background colour. Dorsal surface of head weakly patterned or unpatterned, sometimes with faint pale supra-ocular bar. If present, mottling on ventral surface of head is very fine speckling and not forming linear white patches. Femoral pores absent. (Chaplin et al. 2023) |
